Wednesday night was our ward's Young Women in Excellence. Our #3 daughter was able to receive her medallion. The YW President invited the mothers of the girls to pick a flower that reminds them of their daughter, explain why, present her with the flower and give a minute or two talk about her. I was so honored to to that for her. Her dad and I chose the sunflower. The condensed version of the talk centered around the ability of the sunflower to follow the sun. They are a symbol of radiant warmth, loyalty and pure thoughts. No flower can lift spirits quite like the sunflower can. They are bright and cheery. Our daughter is a prime example of these qualities and she does strive to follow the "Son."
She had her wisdom teeth taken out only five days before the meeting and she looked and felt pretty normal for the night's activity.
DD#4.....so proud of them! |
